What Is The Treatment For Hair Loss?

hi, i'm worried that my hair is thinning rapidly, which began about 10 months ago... I came home from traveling feeling really healthy but then a month or so later had a big depression, i started to get lots of spots, and many all over my scalp. Been taking tetraysal for a few months which has helped with the spots, but now my hair is really getting me down and worried im losing it! Im 30 years old...

Dermatologist,  's  Response
Please indicate whether your hair loss is patchy or generalized. It would be good if you post some pics of the affected region. It looks more in favor of Alopecia Areata which is generally a self limiting condition but it can take several years to recover without treatment. You need not get anxious as there are effective remedies available to treat your problem even if it is something different from Al Areata.
